Winter Safety Tips for Kids and Parents

George of Mighty World Offers Kids Winter Safety Tips

(PRWEB) October 13, 2007 -- Winter brings the anticipation of snow days off from school, sleigh riding and snowman-building for most kids. However, along with the fun comes safety issues due to the temperature and weather changes. George of Mighty World offers kids these tips:

• Never play outside alone. Always make sure a buddy is with you, especially when playing in the snow.

• Go indoors frequently to warm up. Have a hot drink and snack.

• Always wear scarves, hats, and mittens to protect from frostbite.

• Though it's not hot out, the sun can still cause sunburn. Make sure you wear sunscreen whenever you're outside.

• Wear layers to stay warm. If you feel too warm, remove only one layer at a time until you're comfortable.

• Wear bright colors that will help you stand out in snowy landscapes.

• If you go ice skating or sledding, make sure you wear a helmet.
